We're Off to See the Wizard...

We have had the funnest weekend celebrating Halloween! Isn't it great to dress up and act silly and have a valid excuse? It is the one day of the yeat that EVERYONE is a kid! :) We attended my family's annual Halloween Party and went as the Tin Man, Dorothy, and The Lion. Brad was such a trooper! :) Thanks for playing alone hon! You can pick your own costume next year,...promise! ;) Little Elle went as Little Red Riding Hood and my Mom went as the Old Grandma in the fairytale. My dad dressed up as a Lion to match Noah B. It was cute to see my parents want to play the part with the babies! :)
Bugs and Trevor dressed in Indian apperal (He served his mission in India)
Kara went as a "Southern Bell"! :) I love it! She just moved to TN with her hubby for dental school so it totally fit! :)
Here are some other great shots of the night! :)


What a great holiday! I think we should have two Halloweens a year! :) Great excuse to have a whole lot of fun! :)
I love spending time with my cute family. AND I get to be here all week because Kara and Elle are here from Tennessee! Wooo Hoo! (Noah and I will miss you Honey)!

  2. Shelley you are so creative! I wouldn't even know where to begin making the tin man costume. You did an awesome job and you look great as Dorthy! I totally agree, we should have 2 Halloweens a year! It's so fun to have kids to dress up. I get those excited feelings inside and it makes me feel like a kid again!

  4. Brad is a good sport! You guys did look great though. Shelley, you really are a super mom getting those costumes together. Noah is the cutest lion I've seen. How goes things with Brad and studying for his test for Grad school?

  8. Thank you so much for posting these! Even though it made me homesick, it's so fun to see everyone dressed up. I miss my niece and nephew!!!!! Love the Wizard of Oz theme. You are a doll and Brad really is a trooper; I don't think I could talk Zac into it.
